Dual diagnosis rehabs are centers which deliver rehabilitation to deal with both addiction and mental health issues at the same time. Dual diagnosis is a very prevalent circumstance for people involved with drug abuse, as people with mental health disorders often self medicate with drugs and alcohol to experience some form of short-term relief from their disorder. In a dual diagnosis rehab, rehab professionals can help people using a detailed rehabilitation plan all directed at restoring and replenishing mental, physical and emotional health while dealing with alcohol and drug abuse issues. Providing a safe setting is essential so that dual diagnosis clients can feel at ease and remain free from distraction from things which may cut across their treatment plan and progress. Treatment counselors will work to spot environmental issues in the client's life including negative people in their lives or any other things that have to be addressed in order for the person to remain mentally healthy and abstinen t once they leave dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral rehab which will help them develop more effective coping methods so that they are able to better handle life circumstances more effectively after they leave dual diagnosis rehab as opposed to turning to drugs as an inferior option.
